We've reached the point in the year again where the only thing standing between you and summer is the dreaded Finals Week. Desperation is at an all time high. Unfortunately, so is procrastination. In the spirit of ignoring your responsibilities, take a study break and check out these 14 burgers, in no definitive order, that are MUCH better than prepping for finals.
1. Western Burger - Cow Calf-Hay
Located in Edmond, OK, the Cow Calf-Hay is a bit of a drive from campus, but who cares? It's a great excuse to put off studying. Their signature burger is topped with grilled jalapenos, bacon, melted cheese, fried onion strings, and barbecue sauce.
2. BBQ Bacon Theta - The Garage
Look at that mouthwatering BBQ-bacon-cheesy deliciousness. School is the farthest thing from your mind when you're staring at this masterpiece.
3. Banzai Burger - Red Robin
If you're looking for a little taste of paradise, the Banzai Burger's teriyaki sauce and grilled pineapple will surely have you daydreaming about a tropical summer vacation.
4. Black and Bleu-House Burger - BJ's
If you have more refined tastes, you'll love this classy burger paired with shoestring fries.
5. Cheeseburger - Five Guys
Five Guys is a great place for a burger because you can get basically whatever you want on it for no additional charge. Forget finals, I just want to study all the delicious flavor combinations.
6. The Thunder - S&B's Burger Joint
Show a little hometown pride with the burger named in honor of our favorite NBA team. While you're at it, might as well watch the Thunder in the Playoffs, it's not like you have more pressing obligations.
7. Egg-O-Nater - The Garage
It's breakfast on a burger! How could you pass this one up? It's great for when you pull three consecutive all-nighters and don't know what time of day it is or what meal to eat.
8. 4 Cheese Burger - Braum's
There is no such thing as too much cheese. On the other hand, there is definitely such a thing as too much studying.
9. Classic Whataburger - Whataburger
This is the perfect burger for when you're up studying at 2AM and don't want to study any longer.
10. Mad Cow Burger - Cow Calf-Hay
This burger has diced grilled chicken, bacon, diced potatoes, two kinds of cheese, and a spicy ranch sauce. Talk about a delicious distraction.
11. Classic Smash - Smashburger
Pure perfection.
12. Baconator - Wendy's
You can't go wrong with bacon.
13. Hickory Brisket and Bacon - BJ's
Brisket + bacon + barbecue sauce + cheddar + jack cheese = the burger of my dreams. Does that count as studying for my math final? No? Okay, it was worth a try.
14. All-American Cheeseburger - Toby's
This is the perfect classic burger to round out our countdown.
Finals? What finals? All I need in my life is a good burger. But if I don't pass finals, I might actually spend the rest of my life flipping burgers instead of eating them, so back to studying I go.
